Admission and Placement Information
Mission Viejo Montessori is an academic prep school for children 2 years through Elementary. We consider several factors when placing a child in our program. These include matching the child’s developmental readiness to the placement that is available. Children from 20 months to 3 years are placed in our toddler classrooms. Our pre-primary classrooms have children ages 3, 4, and 5 in a multi-age group. Our Kindergarten classroom typically groups children 4½-6, but this does sometimes change depending on our enrollment for the year. Our Lower Elementary classroom groups children age 6 to 9 and our Upper Elementary 9 to 12. Our Elementary students must meet state age requirements and demonstrate appropriate competencies.
